I have been interested in game design for a long while now so the first thing I did was take a semester of C++. Now thats over I come back here and It says the first thing you sould make a a Tetris clone. I have no clue where to begin. I downloaded some code, and I understood some of it but not enough to even start. Where do I begin? and Where can I find a tut for making a Tetris clone?

Start small, start Tic-Tac-Toe
